I am trying to right sql statement on the shell prompt but its not going through.
Here is the statement:


[EMAIL PROTECTED] usr]# mysql security < select *  from machine;
-bash: select: No such file or directory


echo "select * from machine" | mysql security


or  put your select statement in a file and:
mysql security < sqlfile


It is asking for the text file. And it works fine with the text file. I am wondering how can we write a sql statement on the command prompt. I looked into the manual but didnt find it. Is there anyone who can tell me the exact syntax. Please help
